About Us

We are a technology startup building automation and analytical tools primarily in the public safety and security (as in physical and national security) space.

At the heart of what we are building is Vardogyir – an analytics automation platform which allows our users to automate collecting data, analysing it, writing findings into reports and distributing those reports. We also have two more specialised and niche technologies: Ahvva, which brings big data analytics and machine learning to vehicle threat and vector analysis; and Tera, a terrorism risk assessment tool using real-time and historical data to measure exposure and vulnerability to terrorism. We have our own office in Redfern, about a 2 minute walk from Redfern station and 5 minutes from Central station.

We are offering a competitive salary + equity + flexible working arrangements.
